have you seen a single child in your life? they have terrible reflexes.

look i have nothing against bass, i just don't think we should give rights to fish. If that makes you want to call me a bassist then i can't stop you.

always fascinating to see innocuous comments like this and a big fat "banned from community" label, then you check why and the user has been banned from like 10 communities for trolling.

it's like digital "bethesda environmental storytelling skeletons"

AFAIK at this point it's pretty clear that nothing special happens to the cat while it's in the box, simply because it's on waaaaaaaaaaay too large a scale for the whole thing to be in a superposition.

to properly hold a superposition like that you have to do nutty shit like cool the environment to within fractions of a degree of 0K and measure the spin of individual protons or whatever

they hadn't invented noses yet

the good thing is that --being robots-- they presumably wouldn't have the concept of impatience or boredom even if they had a soul. So we shouldn't worry about them feeling abandoned, just make sure we get there before they decay too much.

if valve maanges to not only normalize linux gaming but also make usable linux phones, that might actually make up for them inventing lootboxes and leaving TF2 to languish.

one day i will afford all their devices, put them in a single room filled with copper pipes, and call it my steampunk shrine. After that of course comes the surgical installation of a red valve on the back of my head.

this is what every day is like for me with autism: if i don't eat whatever the fuck my brain considers the "correct" food that day, then everything will just be gray and miserable until i at least eat something crunchy so i can reach a baseline level of functionality.

The best settings are where everyone is morbidly fascinated by each other.

Humans are effectively viewed as stereotypical frenchmen, constantly smoking and drinking and eating violently stinky food.
Dwarves think asbestos has a wonderful crunchy texture that goes great with a tall glass of mercury.
Elves cannot comprehend why you wouldn't simply drink raw magic like a civilized person (you gotta try some Yith'Illian merlinot, they age it for two hundred years in silverwood caskets which gives it a gorgeous silky texture).
Orcs consider most human food to be ultraprocessed slop for babies, but have become borderline addicted to our hard candy and have formed a deep friendship with dwarves over sharing bones to gnaw on.

we're walkpilled brainmaxxing cookcels

we have a lot of little superpowers, but i'd say the big one is the thing we're doing right now. We would never have made any of this technology if we didn't communicate and work together absurdly well.

Hell it applies to other animals too: being both intelligent and social unlocks the ability for not only your entire species but potentially even all the intelligent species to collaborate.
